115.05The only thing that exists in creation is the upper force, called “One, Unique, Eternal.” It created something that would be able to feel it.

This “something” is called a vessel, Kli, a soul, or a creation; it senses only what surrounds and fills it, namely, the very upper force that created it.

This sensation begins to appear in the Kli as the most simple, very faint feeling, the slightest impression of the upper force. It is a natural reaction inherent to the nature of the Kli and requires no effort on the part of the Kli to arise. This faint natural impression is termed this world.

The upper force has a specific program regarding the Kli it created; the Kli is destined to perceive the upper force up to a certain degree called infinity. The Kli was created with an inherent readiness for precisely this measure of perception, and the upper one guides its development it so that it may ultimately perceive Him in His full, infinite measure.

The Kli gradually develops an increasing degree of sensitivity to the upper force. Its development takes place in stages; these stages are called worlds. In total, there are five stages of development.

Initially, the Kli is in a completely unconscious state relative to the upper force, much like an embryo in its mother’s womb. We designate this specific sensation as this world, which in the broader scheme is the lowest degree of the world of Assiya.

Subsequently, the Kli can develop heightened sensitivity and thereby perceive the upper force as the worlds of Assiya, Yetzira, Beria, Atzilut, the world of Adam Kadmon, and finally, as Infinity. We refer to the impressions experienced by the Kli by the names of the lights NRNHY (Nefesh, Ruach, Neshama, Haya, and Yechida). The Kli can feel only its own properties and how, through those properties, it attains the upper force. This is all that it is capable of feeling.

276.02Question: Is it necessary for wars to develop in accordance with the still, vegetative, animate, and speaking levels?

Answer: The inner wars, in accordance with the degrees, become more and more extensive until we come to the war against Amalek. This is the greatest, final war, which destroys the entire Sitra Achra, all the impure forces, the stony heart (Lev haEven).

On each degree, it depends on how the will to receive is revealed in opposition to the will to bestow. And each time their opposition appears before a person’s eyes more and more.

The difference between them is such that, as it is said, the Creator judges the righteous to a hair’s breadth. If earlier you did not feel that you were in a war, in disagreements even over some global things, then clarifications later take place on a very subtle level.

If someone looks from the side, he will think: “What is wrong with you, really?” He does not understand at all what is happening. But you relate to it in such a way that you simply cannot bear it even for a single moment. Sensitivity grows, the level, the depth of analysis. And this continues until all difference between your opinion and the opinion of the Creator disappears.

260Question: What is the depth of a word?

Answer: A word is a universe; a word is everything. “In the beginning was the word.”

Question: So you are saying that it contains the universe within itself?

Answer: Yes, in general, this word is “Yod‑Hey‑Vav‑Hey.”

This is the four‑letter name of the Creator, which explains the four stages through which the upper emanation descends upon His creation. That is the word, and everything else comes from it.

Question: If you say that “everything else comes from it,” does it mean this word present in every word, in every action, in absolutely everything?

Answer: In everything! Yod‑Hey‑Vav‑Hey includes absolutely everything.

Question: What kind of magic is this? What kind of secret? What are these four letters that are in everything, absolutely everything?

Answer: This is the name of the Creator. In other words, it includes the four stages of the spreading of the light from the Creator Himself to all creations.

Question: So the light exists practically in every word, in every action, and in everything?

Answer: Yes. And this word includes within itself all words; absolutely everything, everything that happens.

Question: This name of the Creator includes everything?

Answer: Yes.

Question: These are four letters. What does the first letter, “Yod – י,” mean?

Answer:Yod – יYod is the source of the light. ״Hey – ״ה is the expansion of the light. ״Vav – ״ו  is its descent downward. And the last ״Hey – ״ה is the clothing of the light in the lower ones that already exist.

Question: It is said that one must not pronounce the name of the Creator. What do they mean by this?

Answer: In principle, you cannot pronounce it anyway no matter how hard you might try. It is because these are merely letters, and this word, in and of itself, it is not a word. It is simply a code.

Question: Are we saying “Yod‑Hey‑Vav‑Hey” is a code?

Answer: Yes, it is a code.

Question: And when it is said that it is forbidden to pronounce the name of the Creator?

Answer: This means that one must not try to name His action. Because, in principle, it is hidden from a person. So do not try to do this. “Forbidden” here means “impossible.”

522.03It is written in The Zohar, Noah (Item 2): “Come and see: ‘All of Israel have a portion in the world to come.’ (Rabash, “All of Israel Have a Portion in the Next World“).

Rabash explains what “all of Israel” means. Who is Israel? Israel is someone who has entered into a covenant with the Creator or aspires to this state. “Entering into a covenant” means that a person has achieved similarity of form with the Creator, that is, adhesion with Him.

Thus, the name “Israel” is given according to one’s desire for the Creator, even by the goal alone despite not yet having achieved it. This is the spiritual definition.

Of course, apart from the spiritual realm, we also live in the material world. But here, in accordance with the law of root and branch, there is another, material, definition of the concept of Israel. According to this definition, it is a person born to a Jewish mother.

However, when Kabbalists speak of Israel, they mean the inner part of a person, where he can truly make the only free choice he has—to adhere to the Creator based on his desire, by making an effort.
